*Feature request*: Ability to manually mark associated cards
Right now, we include a "Related cards" section in a lot of our cards, in addition to the Users who viewed this card also viewed links generated by Guru. I would love to be able to manually associate cards for two reasons:
1. To direct people to cards I know are specifically linked to the card they are viewing, and
2. To make it easier to identify cards that may need to also be reviewed or updated when making edits.
I could do this with tags I suppose but the margin of error is greater with tags I think and would require a pretty robust tagging structure, and we already have a hard time getting authors to use tags specific to administrative functions (and to not remove them accidentally.)
For example:
We have cards verified by our Money team, but also have a few cards that Money created for Live Support. We had an update to a process in Money and the Money-specific cards were updated, but they forgot to update the card that Live Support uses. (Don't get me started with why we have these broken out - it's a pain point for me. 😅 )
Hi Ali 👋 , hope you had a lovely weekend!
Well, a workaround would be to use the Guru Link to include a link to related cards but it sounds like you would like a more time efficient method to detect related cards and more easily link to them during card creation?

Yes, we already do include a Guru link, but sometimes this is info that is for admin purposes only (like the above example, we probably wouldn't link the Live Support card to the Email Agent card bc it's not relevant to Email Agents) - it would be nice to have it on the backend instead of having to list a bunch of cards in the card itself! Definitely would be nice to link in card creation, and even later when verifying.


Or like when we have a large change, being able to pull up related cards in the Card Manager to export and give to those making edits, would be super efficient/cool! Right now I do that...manually.


I was looking for this too, it would be very nice to have. Searching becomes a bit useless with very common words within a documentation and sometimes we need to navigate from card to card. Adding related cards and having this kind of link be bidirectional, so both origin and destination show a link to each other, would ease finding stuff that might be otherwise difficult. (Memory plays tricks on us and sometimes we keep searching for the wrong card because that’s how we did it the first time, even if it’s not very tightly related but on a similar topic).
